Chapter 186: Islands
In the sea of home.
The world of dreams is always surrounded and filled with colorful dream mist and clouds.
Only when someone is dreaming in this area will these cirrus clouds break open a space for dream bubbles to appear.
Or it could be said that it was because someone was dreaming in this area that the bubble of dreams forcibly squeezed out an area.
Essentially, whether it was cirrus clouds or anything else, they would not float along with Alka and the others’ dreams.
In this way, in the dream of the Home Sea, for these dream monsters, it is filled with mud and stones.
After all, these colorful cirrus clouds are equivalent to soil and stones to the creatures in dreams.
Having roughly understood the mechanism, Alka was not going to drag other people's dream bubbles over.
Just be around and you can take care of them.
After being dragged over, the next dream was scattered again.
Just a quick tour.
This place is even more desolate, even more desolate than the area we were in last night.
Except for the light and shadow arms that appeared and knocked around Porro's dream, no monsters visited other people's dreams.
Even after walking around Alka, he didn't see the monster in his dream.
The desolate real world affects the dream world.
Dreams and reality are isolated from each other, yet closely connected.
With this thought in mind, Alka fell into the bubble below.
This is Lucelia's dream.
At this time, Lucelia's dream scene was a little strange. It was a huge stone fortress built on black soil.
The towering fortress reaches into the sky.
Lucilia herself stood on top of the fortress's tallest tower, wearing heavy black and red knight armor.
He also held two huge swords in his hands.
Dual wielding greatswords?
I didn't expect Lucelia to have such a brave heart.
She just stood at the top and posed.
As Alka floated over, the heavy helmet covering her head dissipated, revealing Lucelia's face inside.
At this moment, Lucilia glanced at him with her light red eyes, then looked away again, staring straight ahead.
Sitting in a concave position, motionless.
Alka reached out and touched her.
The determined look became confused, and then regained clarity.
Lucilia looked at the surrounding environment and her own situation.
“Wow!”
She was very surprised at her own outfit and showed a look of surprise and slight satisfaction.
He raised the huge sword in his hand and swung it twice.
“Haha, awesome!”
Alka looked at Lucilia swinging two large swords around and shook her head, but still clapped her hands.
"Okay, stop playing. We should see what changes happen in the dream world outside."
After hearing this, Lucilia put away her playful mentality.
The greatsword disappeared from his hand, the castle collapsed, and the black soil turned into a forest.
The only thing she didn't take off was her knight's armor. It seemed that she was very satisfied with her outfit for the time being.
Alka had awakened Lucelia from her dreams many times, but this was the first time he saw Lucelia controlling her dreams so freely.
Although Lucelia was able to control it before, it was a bit difficult.
"How come you can control it so well now?" I couldn't help but ask.
Hearing this, Lucilia smiled and said, "Because I am already a Toucher, and a triple helix."
really.
There are also obvious changes in the control of the dream by the person who touches it.
The strength of the soul affects the strength of the spirit.
The two floated to the side of the bubble film. Lucilia waved her hand, making the film transparent so that they could see the scenery outside.
I couldn't help but reach out and touch the film, but it was like I had touched a solid wall and I couldn't reach out at all.
"You still can't make bubbles even when you're outside?" Lucelia said with some regret.
Alka looked at the scene and thought about it, then a dream catcher crystal ball appeared in his hand, and pink mist poured out of the crystal ball, enveloping Lucilia.
"Now you go out and give it a try?"
Hearing this, Lucilia stretched out her hand directly, and it went through smoothly as if it had penetrated a thin film.
"It works, I can really get out!" Lucillia said excitedly as she looked at her arm that had already gotten out.
It seems that the Dream Catcher was really suppressed in the Home Sea.
Seeing this scene, Alka also smiled, took Lucelia's hand and led her out.
"Is this the real dream world? It looks so weird." Lucilia couldn't help but say as she looked at the surrounding environment.
"Let's go and take a look at Xia Daiti's dream."
Alka said as he pulled Lucelia towards a bubble nearby.
After passing through the bubble.
I arrived at a world full of flowers, and there was a swing in the center of the world.
Xia Daiti was sitting on the swing, swinging quietly.
Looking at the world, Lucilia couldn't help but say, "It's so beautiful."
A breeze blew.
Countless petals are rolled up and float in the air.
The two men came in front of Xia Daiti. Xia Daiti, who was swinging on the swing, just glanced at the two men and then looked away, as if they didn't exist.
"Is it always like this in dreams? Me too?" Looking at Xia Daiti's expression, Lucilia couldn't help but ask.
Alka nodded, "You are the same."
However, before he could touch Xia Daiti, Xia Daiti's eyes automatically changed from confusion to clarity.
Then he looked at the two of them and smiled.
Xia Daiti controls the spell of entering a dream and can now choose independently whether to wake up from the dream.
She looked at Lucilia with some surprise and couldn't help but ask, "Can I create characters in my dreams?"
"No, I'm the real Lucelia."
"Really? You were able to leave your dream?"
Xia Daiti asked with some surprise.
Although she can wake up from her dreams on her own and can start to drastically change her dream world through spells, she still cannot leave her dream bubble.
Arka's dream catcher poured out mist and enveloped Xiadaiti.
"You can go out now, too."
After saying that, Alka pulled the two of them and flew directly out of the bubble of the dream.
Came to the bizarre world outside.
"Is this the world of dreams? This is too weird."
Anyone who comes to this dream world for the first time will marvel at the weirdness of this world.
"Where is the monster in the dream you talked about yesterday? Where is it?" asked Lucilia next to him.
"I only saw that arm. The other two monsters are not around."
As he spoke, Alka pointed to the arm outside of Pororo's dream bubble.
Now that I think about it, it’s such a pity. I should have killed the Grim Reaper in the dream last night and I should have gotten some good spoils.
He took the two of them on a journey through the dream world, which greatly satisfied their curiosity.
Calculating the time, it’s almost time.
Alka suggested, "Let's go back. It's almost time. If we don't want to feel listless tomorrow, we should get a good night's sleep."
Then he returned with the two people.
On the way back to the city.
"This bubble is different." Lucelia suddenly said, pointing at a bubble next to them.
Hearing his words, Alka turned around.
I couldn't help but stop flying.
Then move towards the bubble.
"This bubble... this bubble belongs to a land creature. Is there an island around it?"
The bubbles of marine life are very easy to identify because they are covered with sea water.
So much so that Alka could see from the outside that the bubbles of marine life were always blue.
Except for amphibians.
And just from the appearance of the bubble in front of us, we can tell that there should be blue sky and white clouds.
I couldn't help but stick my head in out of curiosity.
The two people next to him started to learn from him.
When the three of them stuck their heads in, they saw the scenery inside: a forest with lush vegetation.
Since it is an animal's dream, the scope is very narrow.
I saw the owner of this dream at a glance.
It was a rabbit-like creature, holding some plant and eating it madly.
Very consistent with the dreams of animals.
“There are islands around here, there are islands around us.”
After saying that, Alka led the two of them and quickly returned to his dream world.
Although I don’t know in which direction, the dream of terrestrial creatures has indeed appeared.
That means there must be islands around where they are now, in the real world.
Otherwise such living terrestrial creatures would not be possible.
After returning to their respective worlds, Alka woke up directly.
He immediately got out of bed and ran to the observation room.
It was already the second half of the night.
Juanlu became the night watchman, and he looked at Alca who was running up hurriedly, feeling a little strange.
"What's wrong?"
Alka said nothing but looked outside.
He began to calculate, following the opposite rules of the dream world.
For example, Lucilia and the others who should be sleeping above him will appear below him in their dreams.
The left one will appear on the right.
This is roughly the rule. There will be some deviation, but it won’t be too big.
He began to recall his direction in the dream.
"Fortunately, fortunately, I didn't miss it."
If we calculate it, the dreamland where the rabbit is located should be in front of their right side. As long as they adjust the route, they will be able to meet it.
They are constantly moving forward.
If the dream where the rabbit is located is behind them or next to them, then there is no chance.
You can still encounter it if you look diagonally in front.
After a brief exchange with the Voice of Dawn, the ship began to change direction.
Alka then turned around and said, "I found an island and I want to go take a look."
Juanlu then nodded in understanding.
I also started to look forward to it.
After all, this was the first island they encountered since leaving their home sea.
Without the help of a nautical chart, there was nothing we could do except move forward, let alone reach other islands.
After chatting with Juanlu for a while, he and Alka returned to their room to continue resting.
In addition to the change of direction in the dream, the distance will also become very abstract, but since I can encounter the dream of the rabbit in the dream.
Even if it is farther, it won’t be too far and will still be within this area.
If you really encounter an island and don't miss it, the Sound of Dawn will dock there by itself.
You don't have to pay attention to it all the time.
After Alka had slept for a few hours, the sky was just getting light and moving music could be heard.
Hearing the music, Alka opened his eyes.
He quickly walked out of the room.
Sure enough, I saw an island outside the field of vision. From this direction, the island did not seem very big.
Maybe it's not even as good as Golden Wheat Island.
The crisp sound of bells was heard.
It was Juanlu in the observation room who was calling out to everyone.
After a while, everyone woke up and came to the deck.
Looking towards the island not far from them.
“What a small island.”
"Is this the island you were talking about last night?" Xia Daiti couldn't help but ask.
Alka nodded.
Hearing their conversation, Jason turned around and looked at them: "What did you do secretly last night?"
"What do you mean by sneaking around? Can you speak?"
Alka said, giving him an elbow.
"Okay, get ready, we're going to the island to check it out."
The Sound of Dawn slowly approached the island, stopped beside the island, and dropped anchor.
Everyone jumped off the deck and came to the beach.
Since the island was quite small, no one was left on the boat to guard it.
And it's not needed anymore.
After all, the ship they are on is a ghost ship, and she can protect herself.
Alka and the others don't need to worry too much.
At this time, the beach of the island was piled with various ship wreckages, almost covering the entire island.
There were also a lot of debris floating on the sea nearby, some of which should be the ones they saw yesterday.
The island trapped the debris, but what is strange is how could an island of this size trap so much?
"Some of the wreckage should be from the past few days, but more of it is from many years ago." Xia Daiti said as he looked at the wreckage around him.
Some fresh ones were right on the beach or floating on the surrounding sea, and they could see them at a glance.
They could even recognize from the markings on some of the ships that they had left their home sea with.
But more debris piled up behind.
Some of these debris have already decayed, are gray and dilapidated, and it is unknown how long they have been here.
There is no doubt that they are the ships that once left the Home Island.
Every ten years or so, a group of people leave, and some lose their lives on the way out.
The crowd dispersed and looked around at the wreckage on the entire beach.
Alka stepped on the beach and felt his feet step on something hard. He used his legs to dig up the sand and revealed the dead bones buried in the sand.
It seems that quite a few more bodies have been washed up.
That’s right, there are wreckage, it would be strange if there were no bodies.
"Do you want to draw a picture?" Xiadaiti came to Alka and asked.
Looking at the island, Alka thought about it and nodded.
"Let's draw a picture. After all, this is the first island. Even if there is nothing on it, it still has commemorative significance."
Xia Daiti nodded.
Silver ripples spread out from under her feet, and she began to walk towards the interior of the island.
Everyone followed closely behind.
The island is indeed small and there is little vegetation on it, but shipwrecks can be seen everywhere, even in the center of the island.
Broken wreckage of ships can also be seen on some huge rocks, and even in the mud buried by the rocks.
The island stayed at this place, and between the ebb and flow of the tide, countless ship carcasses were left here.
It is like a ship cemetery.
It is unknown how long ago these debris in the center of the island were created, and they have long since merged with the surrounding vegetation.
If you don't look carefully, you won't be able to find it at all.
But there are too many wreckages of these ships, considering the size of your island and the never-ending sea beside it.
How on earth was it possible to intercept so many ship wreckages?
To be honest, it’s a bit strange. Is it because this island is located at the intersection of some ocean currents?
Thinking of this, Alka nodded, maybe this is the reason.
After all, he didn't pay attention to the specific direction of the currents, he could only feel that they were always moving forward.
Just a short walk.
Xia Daiti nodded, indicating that she had completed the detection.
I came to the beach alone, found a place, took out my tools and started painting.
The rest of the people also separated on the island and looked around for places that interested them.
The island is so small that it won't be a problem if we split it up.
"The concentration of magic here is quite high."
Jason couldn't help but speak as he walked among the wreckage.
Alka beside him nodded. He had already sensed that the concentration here was slightly higher than the surrounding sea surface.
Is it because there are too many wreckages of spell ships? After all, the materials used in these spell ships can be regarded as spell materials to some extent.
Not to mention the spells engraved on it, there may be many spell-inscribed cargoes carried on the ship that are also buried on this island.
And the bodies of those who touched it.
Although it may have been corrupted over time, the magic it carries still nourishes the island.
A blue bird landed on Alka's shoulder.
Hear the news from the bird.
Alka patted Jason's shoulder and said, "I'm going to go over there first. You can go shopping by yourself."
After saying this, he jumped a few times and left the place.
After a while we arrived at the beach.
Lucelia was on the beach, releasing her strength to her heart's content, with sand and dirt flying everywhere.
She didn't dare to release her power freely on the boat, but here she could do whatever she wanted.
Xia Daiti, who was drawing something on the drawing board next to him, looked up from time to time and said a few words.
She was taking this opportunity to speed up Lucelia's process of mastering her own power.
Looking at Alka who was walking over, he waved.
Alka walked over. At this time, there was already a general outline of the map and some details on Xiadaiti's paper.
For Alka, this map was enough, and Xiadaiti obviously knew it.
Although she was still working on more detailed depictions and coloring, she called Alka over.
Alka blinked and looked at the map in Xiadaiti's hand.
At this time, light spots have appeared on the map.
It really does exist.
It should be the cargo carried by the wreckage.
